The map of Japan, featuring the old names of provinces, is accurate, as well as the families involved in the conflict. It gets many things right such as the fact there was no canons or any kind of artillery at that time , and there is no glaring issue in the way it describes things overall.
The diplomatic options are faithful to the times: you can help relieving tensions between clans by arranging marriages, offering monetary gifts weaker enemies can be turned into vassals they stay autonomous but provide you with a monthly share of their income. You can exchange hostages to seal an otherwise difficult deal. I was pretty impressed that Shogun 2 even tried to simulate the spread of Christianity in Japan. Once again they got this aspect very right — at the time of the events depicted in the game, the Christian faith was spreading progressively after the numerous exchanges between the Portuguese and the Japanese, and the arrival of Francois Xavier in in the southern part of Japan.
Not too long after, there are historical accounts of a few lords becoming converts, and even forcing their own folks to adopt the faith and reject Buddhism. In the area of Nagasaki, the conversion was more natural, and commoners started to adopt the faith by themselves as they exchanged more and more with the foreign powers, so that Nagasaki became the first Christian city of Japan. It did not last too long, as a severe persecution and extermination of Christians took a heavy toll on its followers in the early s till the late 19th century, so that Christianity completely disappeared.
The game gives you a couple of options towards that new religion, and provides ongoing information about the number of your citizens converting to that faith. You can also decide to convert your own family and embrace it fully. I did not go that far to see the full blown effects of such actions, but just the fact that they thought about modeling it is a very nice touch.
If you play as southern lord such as the Shimazu family , the direct contact with the foreign powers also brings some military advantages: the first rifles matchlocks to ever enter Japan. Such units are extremely effective at short range compared to archers, and it can make quite an impact when used again samurai or other infantry units. However when it comes to actual battles, the game makes strange assumptions. Not a big deal, but fights start with a cutscene just before battles take place.
It is voiced in Japanese with English subtitles. So far, so good. But during combat, voice-overs become in English, spoken with a strong Japanese accent. Why mix both? Install Steam. Store Page. Global Achievements. Last edited by Potato Soup ; 14 Feb, pm.

You can also try to run the game as an administrator in compatibility mode with different versions of Windows. Your first solution to this problem install new drivers for a video card. This action can drastically rise game FPS. If before starting the game you can see that some process consumes too many resources - turn off the program or simply remove this process from Task Manager.
Next, go to the graphics settings in the game. First — turn off anti-aliasing and try to lower the setting, responsible for post-processing. Many of them consume a lot of resources and switching them off will greatly enhance the performance, and not greatly affect the quality of the picture. If Total War: Shogun 2 often crashes to the desktop, try to reduce quality of the graphics. It is possible that your PC just does not have enough performance and the game may not work correctly.
Also, it is worth to check out for updates - most of today's games have the automatic patches installation system on startup if internet connection is available. Check to see whether this option is turned off in the settings and switch it on if necessary. I had been having this issue for about a month and it was really messing with my mind because the game worked perfectly before this anomalous error cropped up out of seemingly nowhere. Keep in mind that disabling Web Advisor will do nothing and you have to completely remove it for this fix to work.
All-in-all, I hope this post was able to help you get Shogun 2 working because I know how much it sucks not being able to play something when you want to. Just keep in mind that Web Advisor has to be completely removed, not just disabled, for this fix to work. Did this fix work for you? Still having issues? Let us know in the comments!
I had the same problem. Go to you antivirus and manage exclusions- how to varies by your anti-virus 3. Thanks to Branton for giving me the clue. I have to ask, are you running McAfee as well? It might be the solution to everything here if you are.
